Which part of the brain controls balance and coordination?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The cerebellum is located at the back of the brain, beneath the occipital lobes and behind the brainstem. It plays a crucial role in motor control, particularly in the coordination, precision, and timing of movements. The cerebellum integrates input from the sensory systems, the spinal cord, and other parts of the brain to fine-tune motor activity. It helps maintain balance and posture by coordinating the muscles used for these functions. Damage to the cerebellum can result in loss of coordination (ataxia), tremors, and difficulty with balance and gait.

Haha, the hypothalamus? Isn't that the part that controls your appetite? I don't think that's where balance comes from.

Matthew: No problem! The cerebrum is more for thinking and decision-making.

Definitely the cerebellum. It's like the little brain at the back of your head that keeps you from falling over when you're walking.
